CITY PLAN COMMISSION

35607-1 RE: PROPOSED ZONE CHANGE OF PROPERTY KNOWN AS 480 MYRTLE STREET FROM I-2 (GENERAL INDUSTRY) TO ARUD

To Her Honor, the Mayor, and the Common Council of the City of New Britain: the undersigned beg

leave to report the following:

The City Plan Commission, at a regular meeting held on January 10, 2022, voted 4 to 0 to recommend that this proposed zone change be approved.

BACKGROUND: The property that is the subject of this zone change is a former Stanley Works property located at the southeastern corner of Myrtle and Burritt Streets. The parcel is slightly over one acre in area, and is the site of a five-story, brick and masonry building, originally built around 1946 with a total of approximately 125,000 square feet of floor area. It has been used most recently for office purposes for the past few decades, but has been largely vacant in recent years. The property is currently zoned I-2, General Industry and it is proposed to be re-zoned to ARUD, Adaptive Reuse of Non-Used or Under-Utilized Industrial Buildings District to allow conversion of the building to residential use.

The ARUD is a zoning classification added to the zoning ordinances in October 2014 for the purposes of facilitating the rehabilitation and adaptive re-use of the former Landers, Frary and Clark building at 321 Ellis Street for multi-family residential use. The ARUD is a unique type of zoning under which the zoning text lays out the general parameters for development, etc., but the more specific zoning requirements are established by the development of a detailed “Master Plan” for the parcel, showing all proposed uses, the number and types of residential units, parking arrangements, etc. This zoning approach allows the developer greater flexibility in design while granting the City more control in the approval process.

As required, the petitioner has presented a detailed Master Plan for the proposed rehabilitation and adaptive re-use of the property, proposing to convert the building into 102 residential apartments. The unit breakdown would be: 4 studio apartments, 85 one-bedroom apartments and 13 two-bedroom apartments. A total of 137 parking spaces are required for the residential use, based on a formula of one parking space per unit for studio apartments, 1.25 spaces per unit for one-bedroom units and 1.5 spaces for two-bedroom units, The parking requirement is further reduced to only 118 spaces taking into consideration allowable reductions for transit availability (10%) and bicycle storage (5%). A total of 36 parking spaces will be provided on site with additional parking for up to another 129 spaces provided under existing parking easements on Stanley Black and Decker properties at 500 and 600 Myrtle Street.

January 12, 2022

In should be noted that the plan invokes provisions of section 175-10-10 of the ARUD ordinances allowing deviation from the basic lot area and dimensional requirements for the ARUD zone. The base requirement for lot area in the ARUD zoning is 100,000 square feet, the actual lot area here is 46,805 square feet; the effective lot area per dwelling unit will be I unit per 450 square feet of lot area, rather than 1 unit per 1,000 square feet standard; the floor ratio is 2.67, rather 1; the total lot coverage is 50% rather than the 25% maximum coverage and no usable outdoor open space is able to be provided as opposed to the 500 square feet of open space suggested in the base ARUD dimensional requirements. As previously noted the ARUD zoning was originally drafted to the facilitate the adaptive re-use of 321 Ellis Street, but the concept was recognized as being potentially useful for application in other locations throughout the City, such as this, and to that end, section 175-10-10 was included, saying specifically,

“Unless expressly prescribed by this section 175, all uses, dimensional, architectural, bulk, location, landscaping, parking, and lighting requirements for ARUD shall be established by the Common Council, acting in its capacity as zoning authority of the City of New Britain…”

PLANNING AND CONSIDERATIONS: The neighborhood surrounding the proposed zone change

area consists of mostly residential properties to the north side of Myrtle Street, with primarily industrial, mostly Stanley Black & Decker properties to the south, including the former manufacturing facilities and property planned for the Energy and Innovation Park fuel cell project.

This building has been substantially underutilized for a number of years and, despite ongoing marketing has not been attractive for any conforming I-2 zone office use. This proposal to create a 102, residential rental units appears to be the most economically viable use of the site. It is also consistent with the City’s recent Plan of Conservation and Development up-date, which encourages development and upgrade of a diverse housing stock through various means, including in-fill development and adaptive re-use of former commercial or industrial space to meet an identified need for workforce housing for young professionals and affordable living space for “empty-nesters”.

Also, as required, the developer has submitted a traffic impact study that indicates that full development would generate a total of 555 vehicle trips per day, with 37 vehicles added to the AM peak hour traffic and 45 vehicles to the PM peak, which could be accommodated on the existing street network and signalization, with minimal impact and maintaining acceptable levels of service at all surrounding intersections. This traffic projection is considerably lower than would be experienced with fully utilization of the 125,000 square feet of floor area for office or comparable business use under the current I-2 zoning, which would be projected at approximately 1,236 vehicles daily, with 154 added to the morning peak hour and 149 vehicles to the evening peak hour.

RECOMMENDATION: The City Plan Commission is of the opinion that the submitted Master Plan

and the adoption of the ARUD zoning designation would be consistent with the goals and policies of the City’s Plan of Conservation and Development; that it would meet an identified need for new, market-rate, workforce housing; it would expand the City’s tax base; and would be consistent with the surrounding residential neighborhood and transitional business area. It would improve the visual appearance of the property and help to preserve a historical and architecturally significant building. Full development, as proposed, would have negligible impact on area traffic and would provide an added population base with disposable income to help support restaurants and businesses in the downtown, in the Broad Street area and elsewhere in the city.

For these reasons, the City Plan Commission recommends the adoption of the ARUD zoning designation for this property and implementation of the ARUD Master Plan as presented. Eileen Gorczycz, Chairperson City Plan Commission

OFFICE OF CORPORATION COUNSEL

35649 RE: SETTLEMENT OF CLAIM ROSARRE NADEAU


In accordance with Sec. 2-44(f) of the Code of Ordinances, this report is being submitted to the Common Council that an appeal brought by Rosarre Nadeau to the Connecticut Department of Housing against the City of New Britain Department of Health settled for the sum of THREE HUNDRED FORTY DOLLARS ($340.00). Sec. 2-44(f) provides that the Office of Corporation Counsel has authority to resolve any pending claim for an amount which does not exceed $2,500.00 provided a report is submitted to the Common Council.

Mr. Nadeau alleges that he was displaced from his apartment unit at 85 Spring Street on February 3, 2021 because the City of New Britain Department of Health issued a condemnation order and is therefore entitled to relocation assistance from the City of New Britain pursuant to Connecticut’s Uniform Relocation Assistance Act C.G.S. Sec. 8-266, et seq (“URAA”). According to the City of New Britain Department of Health, Mr. Nadeau’s apartment was condemned on February 3, 2021 because the unit sustained smoke damage as the result of a fire in a neighboring apartment unit.

The City of New Britain Department of Health denied Mr. Nadeau’s request for relocation assistance under the URAA because it appeared that Mr. Nadeau was not displaced under the meaning of the URAA. The property manager at Mr. Nadeau’s apartment building offered Mr. Nadeau a new apartment unit soon after the issuance of the condemnation order that was available for occupancy and was substantially similar in style to his condemned apartment unit, but Mr. Nadeau declined the offer and did not obtain permanent housing until he moved into a new apartment unit several weeks later. Mr. Nadeau, through his attorney with Greater Hartford Legal Aid, appealed this decision to the Connecticut Department of Housing on October 18, 2021.

Given the potential for protracted and unnecessary litigation with Mr. Nadeau’s legal aid attorney which will require the involvement of multiple City employees, a settlement of $340.00 is a reasonable and practical solution to resolve Mr. Nadeau’s appeal. Additionally, as part of this settlement, Mr. Nadeau has agreed to waive all possible future claims against the City that stem from the City’s alleged denial of benefits under the URAA.

This appeal has been withdrawn by the appellant without costs to the City of New Britain and settlement was made without admission of any liability. John F. Diakun City Attorney 35650 RE: SETTLEMENT OF CLAIM PHYLLIS MARTIN VS. CITY OF NEW BRITAIN


ACCEPTED AND ADOPTED, By the Common Council of the City of New Britain that the sum of FIFTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS ($15,000.00) be paid to Phyllis Martin and Brittany D. Wallace, Esq., her attorney, in full settlement of Ms. Martin’s claims and lawsuit against the City of New Britain now pending in the New Britain Superior Court under Docket No. HHB-CV21-6063710-S.

It is alleged that on March 9, 2019 Ms. Martin tripped and fell over a raised section of sidewalk on Oak

Street near North Street and sustained injuries to her feet, knees, hands and back. Public Works has confirmed that there was a problem with the condition of the sidewalk at that location. An MRI reveals that Ms. Martin’s fall did exacerbate existing degenerative disc disease in her lower back at L5/S1 and

8

January 12, 2022

38

has caused fluid to develop in her right knee. Ms. Martin states that she continues to experience a significant amount of pain in her back and right knee as a result of her fall. During the course of her treatment, Ms. Martin was given steroid injections in her back and both knees, and completed 7 physical therapy sessions at Shaw Chiropractic Group and 4 additional physical therapy sessions at the Hospital of Central Connecticut. Ms. Martin has a medical lien for accident related treatment costs in the amount of $26,306.66.

A settlement of $15,000.00 is a reasonable and practical solution given the total medical bills and the

potential for an award of non-economic damages based on future pain and suffering. This recommendation is made upon the advice and approval of Corporation Counsel Gennaro Bizzarro, Esq.

This lawsuit will be withdrawn by the plaintiff without any costs to the City of New Britain and

settlement is to be made without any admission of liability. John F. Diakun City Attorney

PURCHASING DEPARTMENT

35651 RE: SALE OF SURPLUS VEHICLES


Per Resolution 33363-2, dated February 10, 2016, the City’s Public Works Fleet Manager conducted an on-line auction for the City’s old Surplus Vehicles. The on-line auction services was provided by Gov-Deals at no charge to the City. Gov-Deals provides on-line auction services for vehicles and equipment only to government agencies. They provide this service to over 5,900 municipalities and state governments in 48 states. They have over 315,000 registered buyers who receive e-mails from them regarding the items that they have on their website for auction.

These City Vehicles were very old, had mechanical problems and no longer could be used by the City Department it was assigned to. The Vehicles were deemed surplus and sold off.

The money received for the sale of the Vehicles was deposited into the City’s General Fund Account, 001624005-4481, General and Administrative, Sale of Property.

The highest bidders for the auctioned Vehicles for the month of December 2021 is on file with the Town Clerk’s Office. It indicates the vehicle type, buyer, their address, number of bids received and the dollar amount received for the Surplus Vehicles sold.

The dollar amount that the City received for the on-line auction sale of the Surplus Vehicles during December 2021 was $16,764.00.

BOARD OF POLICE COMMISSIONERS 35599-1 RE: REVIEW OF NO PARKING SIGNAGE IN AND AROUND 70-90 TALCOTT STREET

AREA


9

January 12, 2022

39

A survey of Talcott Street was conducted for the contradictory signage and road layout. Talcott Street consists of several multi-family homes and multiple apartment buildings as well as Smalley School. No parking restrictions are located on the entire length of the east side of the street, which is the side of the street the school is located on. No parking “7:00am – 5:00pm Monday – Friday” signage is located on the west side of the street where the apartment buildings are located.

The signage is clear and easy to understand, and posted appropriately as the school requested the signs be installed to help with school traffic and to allow school buses to fit on the street. The roadway is not wide enough to allow parking on both sides of the street, or just restricting parking to one side as buses would have difficulty pulling into and out of the school parking lot. In the last year 49 parking tickets were issued for violations on the street.

There appears to be enough off street parking behind the apartment buildings and multi-family homes to accommodate residents, and there is also on street parking on nearby West Street. There is also a city parking lot located a short distance away at the intersection of Putnam Street and Willow Street. Sgt. J. Torrente was advised by public works that residents could purchase a permit from the city to park in that lot.

Although it is more convenient for residents of the apartment building to park directly in front of their buildings on Talcott Street, this creates traffic issues and there are plenty of both on and off street parking nearby. The parking signs appear to be reasonable and needed, and it recommended by the traffic division to not update the signage or make any changes to them.

The board voted to approve petition # 35599 as to the review and recommendations of the traffic division to not update the signage or make any changes to them. David Polletta Clerk of the Board 35601-1 RE: TRAFFIC STUDY AT CORNER OF ALBANY AVENUE AND CLINTON STREET


The intersection of Clinton Street and Albany Avenue is a heavily populated residential area. The roadway is mostly straight with good sight lines. Clinton Street curves slightly where it meets Burritt Street. Traffic Sergeant Joseph Torrente observed curve warning signs and 25 mph speed limit signage posted close to the intersection. Sergeant Torrente states the speed limit sign posted in front of 25 Albany Avenue was leaning heavily to the side, and the stop sign located on Albany Avenue where it intersects with Clinton Street had graffiti on it.

Speed data was collected from NBPD’s speed spy radar from 12/7/2021 to 12/13.2021, which recorded 32,110 vehicles in that timeframe. The average speed for motorists was 28mph, and the eighty fifth percentile speed was 34mph. In the last two years, 2 non-injury motor vehicle crashes; and one fatal crash occurred at the intersection. A significant factor of the fatal crash was that the deceased was operating an off-road dirty bike on the roadway at night, which was not equipped with any lights or reflectors.

The low amount of crashes coupled with the low speed data does not necessitate significant roadway changes to mitigate speeding, and the signage along the roadway is posted appropriately. However, Sergeant Torrente recommends this petition is forwarded to the public works division to have the stop sign at Albany Avenue and Clinton Street replaced with a new sign and reflective stop bar in the road. Sergeant Torrente recommends that the speed limit sign that’s leaning over be replaced with a new sign. The traffic safety bureau will monitor the area and take enforcement action as necessary.

10

January 12, 2022

40

The board voted to approve petition # 35601 to forward to Public Works for replacement of the stop sign at Albany Avenue and Clinton Street along with a reflective stop bar in the road, and also for replacement of the speed limit sign at 25 Albany Avenue.

David Polletta Clerk of the Board 35609-1 RE: REPLACEMENT OF FADED NO PARKING SIGNS AND STOP SIGNS IN THE AREA

OF ELLIS STREET, ROCKY HILL AVENUE AND EAST STREET


A survey of the petitioned area was conducted for the faded signage and road layout. Sergeant

Torrente located numerous no parking signs posted around the entire perimeter of the Evergreen Apartments. The signage appeared to be appropriately placed as the roadway was not wide enough to accommodate parking on each side, multiple no parking signs on the southbound side of Ellis Street near its intersection with East Street that were heavily faded and difficult to read.

There were several signs on the east side of East Street near the intersection with Ellis Street that were also badly faded, and the stop sign on Rocky Hill Avenue and Ellis Street heading northbound was also faded. In the last two years three parking tickets were issued in the petitioned area.

It appears that the parking restrictions are properly posted, and that there is no need for additional signs. Sergeant Torrente recommends that the faded signs along with the faded stop sign be replaced with newer more visible signs. Sergeant Joseph Torrente recommends this petition to be forwarded to public works to have new signs installed.

The board voted to approve petition # 35609 to replace the faded no parking signs and stop sign to new signs. David Polletta Clerk of the Board

BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NEW BRITAIN that Article I, Section 2-8 of Chapter 2 of the Code of Ordinances, be amended to read as follows (inserted text appears in underline; deleted text appears in strikethrough; new sections begin with the word [new]; amendment inserted text appears in italic bold underline; amendment deleted text appears in italic bold strikethrough): CHAPTER 2 – ADMINISTRATION ARTICLE I. – IN GENERAL

Sec. 2-8. Smoking policy. Prohibiting Smoking and/or use or consumption of tobacco or cannabis

product in any form shall be prohibited in City Hall and any other City owned or leased building or property, or vehicle, or within 25 feet of any doorway, window or air intake vent of City Hall or any other City owned or leased building. This includes but is not limited to lighted cigarettes, cigars, pipes or similar devices such as electronic cigarettes, e-cigarettes, hookahs, vape pens, electronic nicotine delivery systems, as well as chewing tobacco and snus.

(2) When these preferences conflict, the city will try to find a reasonable accommodation such as

determining if a ventilation problem exists and correcting it if it does, or by relocating the smoker or nonsmoker as is appropriate and convenient.

(3) When such an accommodation is not possible, smoking will be prohibited in the area where it

adversely impacts others.

(b) Prohibited common areas.

(1) Smoking is not permitted in unvented confined areas of general access, such as meeting or classrooms, rest rooms, auditoriums, designated conference rooms, library areas, health facilities, public service areas, elevators, hallways, stairwells, and employee lounges.

would be exposed to hazard from fire, ashes, or smoke. (3) Smoking is also prohibited where combustible fumes can collect, such as in garage and

storage areas, chemical laboratories, and all other areas where occupational safety or health hazards might exist.

(4) At the recommendation of the smoking policy committee and with the approval of the mayor or

his designee, other locations where smoking is prohibited may also be designated.

(c) Smoking restrictions.

(1) Where work area space is shared by two (2) or more employees, accommodations to individual preference will be made when possible. For example, department heads, when asked, will try to separate smokers and nonsmokers. If accommodations cannot be reached by moving either, or other alternatives are not available, then smoking in the surrounding area will be prohibited. If necessary, the matter may be referred to the personnel director for final decision.

(2) In city vehicles, smoking will be permitted only as long as there is no objection from one or

more of the occupants. _____________________________________________________________

smoking" areas and post them as such with an appropriate sign. (e) Visitors. Visitors will be encouraged to abide by the same smoking rules as employees. (f) Conflicts; enforcement. No one can guarantee that these efforts [these guidelines] will satisfy every

person. The city asks both nonsmokers and smokers to be flexible, to respect each other's needs, and to cooperate to resolve conflicts. The department head is responsible for the enforcement of this policy.

(g) Smoking in City Hall. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (a) through (f), smoking shall be

prohibited at all times in all areas of City Hall, 27 West Main Street. (h b) Penalties for violation of subsection (g):

35628-2 RE: AMENDMENT TO THE CODE OF ORDINANCES ARTICLE III ANTIBLIGHT PROGRAM TO ADD DEFINITIONS AND EXPAND ENFORCEABILITY


leave to recommend the adoption of the following: Resolution Summary: PURPOSE. To amend the Antiblight Program established in the Code of

Ordinances to add definitions of blighted properties and expand enforceability. BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COMMON COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF NEW BRITAIN that Article III of

Chapter 7 of the Code of Ordinances, be amended to read as follows (inserted text appears in underline; deleted text appears in strikethrough; new sections begin with the word [new]; amendment inserted text appears in italic bold underline; amendment deleted text appears in italic bold strikethrough):

CHAPTER 7 – BUILDINGS AND BUILDING REGULATIONS

37

January 12, 2022

67

ARTICLE III. – ANTIBLIGHT PROGRAM Sec. 7-40. Declaration of policy.

This article is authorized pursuant to Connecticut General Statutes, including, but not limited to, section 7-148, including, but not limited to, section 7-148(c)(7)(A)(i) which empowers a municipality to make rules relating to the maintenance of safe and sanitary housing; section 7-148(c)(7)(A)(ii) which empowers a municipality to regulate the mode of using any buildings when such regulations seem expedient for the purpose of promoting the safety, health, morals and general welfare of the inhabitants of the municipality; section 7-148(c)(7)(A)(iii) which empowers a municipality to cause the removal and demolition of unsafe buildings and structures; section 7-148(c)(7)(H)(ii) which empowers a municipality to regulate and prohibit the carrying on within the municipality of any trade, manufacture, business or profession which is, or may be, so carried on as to become prejudicial to public health, conducive to fraud and cheating, or dangerous to, or constituting an unreasonable annoyance to, those living or owning property in the vicinity; section 7-148(c)(7)(H)(viii) which empowers a municipality to preserve the public peace and good order, prevent and quell riots and disorderly assemblages and prevent disturbing noises; section 7-148(c)(7)(H)(xi) which empowers a municipality to provide for the health of the inhabitants of the municipality and do all things necessary or desirable to secure and promote the public health; section 7-148(c)(7)(H)(xiii) which empowers a municipality to make and enforce police, sanitary or other similar regulations and protect or promote the peace, safety, good government and welfare of the municipality and its inhabitants; and section 7-148(c)(7)(H)(xv) which empowers a municipality to make and enforce regulations which define and are intended to prevent housing blight.

It is hereby found and declared that there exists within the City of New Britain a large number of real

properties which are vacant and in a blighted condition and that the existence of such vacant and blighted properties contributes to the decline of neighborhoods. It is further found that the existence of vacant and blighted properties adversely affects the economic wellbeing of the city and is inimical to the health, safety and welfare of the residents of the city. It is further found that blighted buildings reduce the city's grand list by allowing the owners of blighted properties to reduce their own tax liability because the blighted conditions reduce the taxable value of the blighted premises, thereby increasing the tax burden on homeowners and other responsible property owners. It is further found that many of the vacant and blighted properties can be rehabilitated, reconstructed, demolished and/or reused so as to provide decent, safe and sanitary housing and ancillary commercial facilities and that such rehabilitation, reconstruction, demolition and/or reuse would eliminate, remedy and prevent the adverse conditions described above.

remediate blighted conditions without consent.

(a) Within the City of New Britain, all owners of real property and tenants shall maintain their property so that the property is not blighted, as defined by this Code of Ordinances. No such owner or tenant shall allow, create, maintain or cause to be created or maintained any blighted property.

(b) Whenever the City of New Britain identifies a blighted premises, written notice of the violation shall

be given to the owner and/or the occupant of the property, by posting a notice of the violation in a conspicuous location at the blighted premises, and delivering a copy of the notice of the violation to an owner, either in hand or by mail. Said notice shall specify that the owner or occupant has a time frame determined at the discretion of the director of health; director of licenses, permits, and inspections or his agent from the date notice was posted and conveyed by first class mail, to remediate the blighted conditions, or the city will take enforcement action.

(c) After the expiration of the notice specified in division (b) above, the City of New Britain, through its

designated agents, may enter blighted premises during reasonable hours for the purpose of

38

OFFICE OF CORPORATION COUNSEL 35675 RE: SETTLEMENT OF CLAIM – CARMEN GONZALEZ VS. CITY OF NEW BRITAIN


68

January 26, 2022

99

In accordance with Sec. 2-44(f) of the Code of Ordinances, this report is being submitted to the Common Council that the case of Carmen Gonzalez v. City of New Britain Et Al., now pending in the Connecticut Superior Court under Docket No. HHB-CV21-6068705-S, settled for the sum of FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS ($5,000.00). Sec. 2-44(f) provides that the Office of Corporation Counsel has authority to resolve any pending claim for an amount which does not exceed $5,000.00 provided a report is submitted to the Common Council.

It is alleged that on July 27, 2019 Ms. Gonzalez tripped and fell over a raised section of sidewalk on

Stanley Street near Long Street. Photos provided by Ms. Gonzalez’s attorney and photos taken by the Public Works department reveal an issue with the sidewalk at that location. Although the portion of Stanley Street abutting that section of sidewalk is maintained by the State, it is the City’s responsibility to maintain that section of sidewalk.

Ms. Gonzalez alleges that she continues to experience pain in her lower back and right leg as a result

of her fall. In August 2019 Ms. Gonzalez was diagnosed with sciatica by a physician at Community Health Center in New Britain, and this diagnosis was confirmed by x-rays taken at the Hospital of Central Connecticut. Ms. Gonzalez then attended seven (7) skilled physical therapy sessions at Community Health Center in New Britain, but was discharged from treatment in October 2019 because her condition failed to show improvement. Ms. Gonzalez’s accident related medical bills total $10,070.57.

A settlement of $5,000.00 is a reasonable and practical solution given the total medical bills and the

potential for an award of non-economic damages based on future pain and suffering. This lawsuit will be withdrawn by the plaintiff without any costs to the City of New Britain and settlement was made without any admission of liability. John F. Diakun City Attorney

BOARD OF POLICE COMMISSIONERS 35641-1 RE: REPLACEMENT OF FADED SPEED LIMIT SIGNS AND INSTALLATION OF

REFLECTIVE STOP BARS AND SCHOOL ZONE SIGNS ON GLEN STREET


A site survey of the petitioned area was conducted for traffic control signs and road layout. This area is

residential and close to the high school. Sergeant Joseph Torrente noticed heavy foot and motorist traffic during high school arrival and dismissal hours. There is a “watch for children” sign posted on Glen Street near Mill Street, however no other warning signs on Glen Street alerting to the approaching high school.

69

January 26, 2022

100

The roadway is wide with clear sight lines. The speed limit signs in the area were faded, but posted appropriately at 25mph for both northbound and southbound lanes of travel. The stop signs in the area were newer, but could use reflective stop bars on the roadway to make them more visible. Speed data was collected by the NBPD Speed Spy Radar from 01/10/2022 to 01/13/2022 for both lanes of travel. There were 7,088 vehicles recorded with the average speed being 31mph. The 85th percentile speed was 37mph. Speeding does not appear to be reckless, however elevated for the area. A one year inquiry of traffic crashes was conducted, which showed two (2) evading crashes where parked vehicles were struck, and one (1) non-injury crash at the intersection of Glen Street and Buell Street.

The speed and crash data do not indicate a need for significant roadway changes. However, Sergeant

Torrente recommended that the faded speed limit signs be replaced, reflective stop bars be installed in the roadway at the stops signs, and school zone signs be installed near these intersections to alert motorists of the nearby high school and students walking in the area. He recommended this petition be forwarded to public works for those changes. The Traffic Safety Bureau has been and will continue to monitor the area and take enforcement action.

The board voted to approve petition # 35641 for replacement of faded speed limit signs, installation of reflective stop bars in the roadway at the stops signs, and school zone signs be installed near these intersections to alert motorists of the nearby high school and students walking in the area. David Polletta Clerk of the Board 35642-1 RE: MONITORING AND ENFORCEMENT OF SPEEDING VIOLATIONS ON KENSINGTON

AVENUE


A similar petition was received for this area in June of 2021 (petition #35453) where a traffic study and

request for the installation of speed bumps was received from Alderman Sanchez. Sergeant Joseph Torrente conducted a site survey of the petitioned area at that time, and the speed limit was clearly posted at 25mph for north east traffic heading into New Britain, and 35mph for south west traffic heading into Berlin. The roadway was recently paved, which often leads to an increase in speeding motorists.

Speed data was collected from the NBPD’s “Speed Spy Radar” from 06/16/2021 to 06/29/2021 for

both travel lanes in the petitioned area. During that time frame 59,314 vehicles were recorded with the average speed being 35mph. The 85th percentile speed was 42mph. The speed data shows an elevated speed for vehicles traveling into New Britain, however not to the point of reckless driving.

Sergeant Torrente conducted a more recent site survey of the area, and noticed that the stop signs at

Kensington Avenue and Cambridge Street are large and reflective, and are clearly posted. There are also signs alerting motorists of the approaching stop signs as well, so it does not appear that the signs are an issue. Traffic officers have been directed to conduct enforcement on Kensington Avenue, especially in the morning hours when school buses are picking up children, and to focus on stop sign violations. A one year inquiry of motor vehicle crashes for Kensington Avenue showed that there were six (6) crashes, with only one involving minor injury.

The speed and crash data do not reflect the need for significant roadway changes such as speed

bumps, also since Kensington Avenue is a State of Connecticut road, the state would be responsible for making roadway changes. Sergeant Torrente recommended that continued enforcement be conducted in the area daily to deter violations. The Traffic Safety Bureau will monitor the area and take enforcement action, and the Patrol Division has also been made aware of this petition to conduct enforcement during second shift hours.

January 26, 2022

The board voted to approve petition # 35642 for the monitoring and enforcement of speeding violations by the Traffic Safety Bureau and for the Traffic Bureau and Public Works to coordinate with the State to conduct a traffic study for additional improvements.

35643-1 RE: INSTALLATION OF A STREET LIGHT ON THE CORNER OF CAMBRIDGE STREET AND LINWOOD STREET


leave to report the following: A site survey of the petitioned area was conducted, and this section of Cambridge Street consists of

single family residences, however there are several multi-family homes located on nearby Linwood Street that utilize off-street parking heavily. The roadway was wide enough to accommodate parking on both sides of the street, and there were no line of sight issues.

Traffic Sergeant Torrente spoke with residents from 38, 40, and 55 Cambridge Street who all stated

that long term parking was not the issue, rather the absence of a street light on the south bound side of Cambridge Street at Linwood Street, which they believed was there at one point, was the problem. The residents believed the street light was never re-installed when the utility pole was replaced. They stated that as motorists turn onto Cambridge Street from Linwood Street it is difficult to see cars parked alongside the road as there is a dark spot in that section of roadway. They believed that if a street light was installed there that would resolve the issue.

A one year inquiry of past incidents showed no motor vehicle crashes in the petitioned area. Two

parking complaints were received from public works of plows not being able to clear the streets of snow because vehicles were parked on the roadway during a snow ban. One complaint of a vehicle blocking a driveway was also received.

Sergeant Torrente recommended to deny this petition for the installation of no parking signage as

there does not appear to be parking issues occurring that would justify the signs. However, he did recommend the installation of a street light at the corner of the intersection to make the area safer. I recommend this petition gets forwarded to public works to assist with that process. The Traffic Safety Bureau will monitor the area for abandoned vehicles, and have them removed if any are found.

The board voted to approve petition # 35643 for the recommendations of Sergeant Torrente in

monitoring and enforcement of abandoned vehicles or other violations in the petitioned area and to forward to Public Works for the installation of a street light at this intersection. David Polletta Clerk of the Board 35644-1 RE: INSTALLATION OF NO PARKING SIGNAGE BETWEEN 58 AND 76 JACKSON

STREET


A site survey of the petitioned area was conducted for road layout and existing signage. Jackson

Street is a residential area consisting of single family homes with plenty of off-street parking. The roadway is not very wide, and currently there is no parking signage on the east bound side of the street.

There is a curve in the roadway as the street goes downhill in the petitioned area, which leads to a line

of sight issue if you are traveling through the curve especially if vehicles are parked on both sides of the

102

street. Also, it appears as residents from the homes between 58-76 Jackson Street exit their driveways they would have line of sight issues as well if cars are parked along the west bound side of the street. A one year inquiry of past incidents showed no motor vehicle crashes in the petitioned area. One parking complaint was received from 66 Jackson Street reporting two vehicles parked in front of the home making it difficult to exit the driveway.

Traffic Sergeant Joseph Torrente recommended to approve this petition based on safety concerns

when traveling through the curve and to alleviate line of sight issues. He recommended this petition be forwarded to the public works division for the installation of no parking signage on the westbound side of the street between 58 and 76 Jackson Street. This would make the area of the curve a no parking zone.

The board voted to approve petition # 35644 for the installation of no parking signage on the

westbound side of the street between 58 and 76 Jackson Street.

ITEM #:

RE: Emergency Purchase Order (Informational Report Only)

DATE: February 09, 2022

In accordance with City Code of Ordinances, Chapter 2, Article VIII, Division V, Section 2-606a, an emergency purchase order was authorized by the Mayor and issued to the vendor listed below on January 27, 2022:

Supplier Item Price

Brindlee Mountain FireApparatus, LLC.Union Grove, AL.

2011 Spartan ToyneRescue Pumper

$200,000.00

The Purchasing Agent reports that no formal bid solicitation and advertisement as outlined in the Purchasing Ordinances were made for this item. In accordance with Section 2-606b of the City Code of Ordinances, the Purchasing Agent reports:

An emergency purchase order was requested by the New Britain Fire Departmentwhich was approved by the Mayor under her executive authority for the purchase of the 2011 Spartan Toyne Rescue Pumper. The current 1982 E-One Hurricane Engine that was in operation as a front line apparatus was involved in an accident recently that damaged the frame and is currently non-operational. The current 1982 E-One Engine was the Fire Department’s only spare Engine and at the time of the accident was being used as a frontline Engine while their current Engine 1 was out for service for corrective repairs. This leaves the Fire Department currently with no spare apparatus at this time. The Fire Department was informed the estimate cost of repairs to bring the 1982 E-One Hurricane Engine up to compliance will cost more than the price of purchasing the proposed used Fire Apparatus. The Fire Chief felt that it is in the best interest of the Fire Department to replace the current 1982 E-One Hurricane Engine with a used one that will be at a lower cost than having it fixed. Funding for the purchase of the 2011 Spartan Toyne Rescue Pumper was available in the Capital Non-Recurring Funds, Account Number JL 0031500121-50740.
